London Map

So we bought a map. 
        

On our last trip to London (you may have read about it here, since we stretched a week long trip into fifty posts) we were in search of a vintage map of London.

Most vintage maps of London cut off the Paddington area because London wasn't as developed as it is now.  The city basically ended at the Edgeware Road and beyond that was countryside.  So the bad news was that not many maps showed where Jen and I lived for a year.  The good news is that maps that do include this section of London are more current and therefore more affordable (relatively).

Now when we sit down to dinner and watch a Netflix show we look up and smile, thinking about how lucky we were to live above our means in the best city in the world.

You need a little post-it of Petey or something on the map so I can tell where you lived.
